2. Do you think that students are better with ICT than teachers?

3. Do you agree that teachers need help?

4. The aim of this project is for you to teach a teacher about the Mac computer system.

5. This will happen in two ways … 1. Build a wiki Working collaboratively, you will use a wiki to build an online manual for your teachers to use. All Year 7 students will work on one system together. 2. Teaching Working in pairs, you will plan and execute a 10-minute lesson for a teacher of your choosing. You will have to teach them what they want to know.

6. So, what is a wiki?

7. Wikipedia is the most famous example of a wiki. Its content has been built up by thousands of individuals, working in different locations at different times.

8. What makes wikis great? 1. Collaborative Instead of getting one person’s ideas, you can harness the “wisdom of crowds” to get something better. 2. Free(dom) People can work on what they want, and say what they want. 3. Flexible People can work together, eve if they work at different times from different places. 4. Instant Changes can be made any time and are immediately viewable. Unlike books, you do not need to reprint.

9. How will your work be assessed?
